I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which combined a spacious suite and excellent leisure facilities. While the room was fantastic and well-equipped, the check-in process was a bit disorganized and the dining options in the evening were limited due to events happening at the hotel. Breakfast was a highlight with an impressive variety of choices. Overall, it was a great experience though there are definitely some areas for improvement.

I had an enjoyable stay at this hotel during the New Year's break. The service was outstanding, and the evening entertainment added a nice touch to the experience. However, my second visit didn't meet all expectations; my last room was uncomfortably warm without air conditioning, and noise from the wedding events disturbed my sleep. Overall, the food quality was impressive, but the breakfast price felt a bit steep.

I had a great overnight stay while visiting my son at the nearby university. The room was comfortable, with an impressive shower experience. The food quality in both the restaurant and bar was high, although I had a little mishap with a very hot burger. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, but the room did feel a bit cramped compared to what I've experienced at other hotels for a similar price.

I had a fantastic experience at this hotel, particularly enjoying the outdoor hot tub and the quality of the food. The staff were welcoming and attentive, making sure our stay was as enjoyable as possible. However, the limited menu choices in the restaurant were a bit of a letdown, and the room, while comfortable, could have used a few more amenities to match its luxury tag.
